“A Family Th8ng” This is a good family

“A Family Th8ng” This is a good family drama starring Robert Duvall and James Earl Jones. A story of family secrets that a mother takes to her grave but leaves a note for those left behind. I think it’s a wonderful movie probably something that’s not too far fetched and one that I think everybody can relate to or understand. At any rate I think this is one that can be enjoyed by most everyone.

Absolutely love this movie, Watched by chance with my mother as she recorded it in the old VHS days. I was hooked from start to finish, Great writing, an amazing cast, and acting, So many emotions in this film, Irma P Hall was amazing. I have shown friends who thought they wouldn't have liked it but loved it too, No had a friend who disliked it.
